πŸ”§ Fix this

Ideas a builder, maker or community group could start on:

  1. Develop a native mobile application that utilizes platform-specific UI components instead of a web view
  2. Implement a native calendar integration API to allow automatic syncing of therapy sessions
  3. Add haptic or visual feedback indicators for all interactive buttons and links within the app
